Featuring vocalist Marc Lopes (Metal Church, Ross the Boss) and multi-instrumentalist Jon Morency (Living Wreckage), metal duo Let Us Prey specialize in a style of heaviness they’ve dubbed “cyber-tech-thrash-core.” That sound can be heard on “In Nameless Blood,” the band’s first new song in five years, which Revolver is premiering right here right now.
Thematically, the neck-snapping industrialized salvo digs into the societal consequences of false narratives spread by all forms of media. Blast it above via the single’s official music video.
“Have we become numb and non-empathetic? Lives are ruined and many times taken, it’s something I feel not enough people seem to be aware of these days,” Lopes asks, referring to the theme of the song. “Just constant information and content consumption, very little individual thought, leading to quick impulsive output. Usually not very productive or positive, hence often more destructive with no accountability.”
He adds: “This record isn’t about fitting into a legacy. It’s about building a new one. It’s unfinished business. So much to say through the art of music, no boundaries, no limitations. We aren’t afraid to play and pull from all our influences — from tech-death-grindcore to hard-rock sensibilities — as long as it hits with maximum intensity.”
The video for “In Nameless Blood” was created by Sonatheria Creative Design, the L.A. studio owned and operated by Lopes. It fuses traditional handcrafted art with AI tools to visually embody Let Us Prey’s man-machine aesthetic.
“AI is no longer optional — it’s a permanent expansion of the creative arsenal,” Lopes comments. “Embracing it fully has been an open, unpredictable and deeply liberating experiment. This technology isn’t going anywhere, so the only move is to master it and make it serve the vision.”
“In Nameless Blood” is out now via Cleopatra Records.
